Presentation

The art is not to copy nature, but to reveal its intrinsic beauty.

Jean-Claude Mathier was born in Switzerland in 1949 and has been practising photography for half a century, independently and freely, outside of any fashion trend. He attended the Ecole des Arts et Métiers in Vevey, Switzerland and studied at the Beaux-Arts in Paris. His mode of artistic expression is pictorial. This offers him the possibility to magnify the beauty and aestheticism of nature, which opens the doors to the understanding of self-knowledge, inner peace and respect for all forms of life. He works by theme and has more than fifty to propose. 

It is through this approach that he invites you to discover his images, whether figurative or abstract, and he thanks you for the attention you pay to his work.

For him, photography is not necessarily a Kodak click and go, it is a work in its own right which is reflected upon and constructed over time before pressing the shutter.

It seems normal to him to give free rein to the imagination, to creation, like a painter builds his universe.

From the vision of reality, the artist can bring you into his worlds in a pictorial way without enclosing the photograph in its limited reality, that is to say that for him there is no border between dream and reality. It is the strength of ART in its quintessence that he sublimates.

Who is the artist?

The art is not to copy nature, but to reveal its intrinsic beauty.

Jean-Claude Mathier was born in Switzerland in 1949 and has been practising photography for half a century, independently and freely, outside of any fashion trend. He attended the Ecole des Arts et Métiers in Vevey, Switzerland and studied at the Beaux-Arts in Paris. His mode of artistic expression is pictorial. This offers him the possibility to magnify the beauty and aestheticism of nature, which opens the doors to the understanding of self-knowledge, inner peace and respect for all forms of life. He works by theme and has more than fifty to propose. 

It is through this approach that he invites you to discover his images, whether figurative or abstract, and he thanks you for the attention you pay to his work.

For him, photography is not necessarily a Kodak click and go, it is a work in its own right which is reflected upon and constructed over time before pressing the shutter.

It seems normal to him to give free rein to the imagination, to creation, like a painter builds his universe.

From the vision of reality, the artist can bring you into his worlds in a pictorial way without enclosing the photograph in its limited reality, that is to say that for him there is no border between dream and reality. It is the strength of ART in its quintessence that he sublimates.
